MAMEUI 0.148 DAT file for EO

Hey all. When I use EO to scan my rom folder I can't seem to get it to properly see the mame roms and create proper naming. For example, Asteroids doesn't show at all and seems to possibly merge with asteroids deluxe. I have my roms zipped in 7z format. I've tried a bunch of settings but can't seem to get it working correctly. Thanks in advance

Hi logann EO has built in mame function to detect your rom set based on dat file,it's very simple to usetry to add new console using eo wizardy,like when you normaly add new console except you need to use add >mame console ,right mouse click on console tab then add >mame console,EO will ask you for rom location and rom dat file

hello logann I test my rom set (0.176) with vanilla dat and it seem to work fine maybe you need to create blank project for mame and use the dat file where you get your romset

I try romlister and spent some time with it,it export many file format one of then is mame xml and hyperspin xml,currently eo doesn't support mame xml format only dat,we 'll add this format in future release

If you intend to use custom xml or dat file when you add your mame rom to eo,you need to use different method than eo wizardylet'us say you have created hyperspin xml output file using romlister,add new blank console,scan for mame romfrom database menu>import databaseselect hyperlist xml typeuncheck"if rom is compressed check inside it for match"check turbo speed (optional)check "delete the rom not matched"import your created xml file,it may take whiledone

Thank you Croser. Unfortunately every time I add the dat for scanning EO crashes. I even tried starting a new profile using MAME wizard and when verifying the dat crashes EO. This is very frustrating! I can add roms but renaming them crashes EO and I've tried several DAT files I've tracked down. I created some using romlister and Datworkshop pro, all just crash EO. Does someone possibly have a dat that works for MAME version 182 ? That's what I'm trying to use now. Thanks!!
